Author: Lori EnglishHave you ever heard it said that you may get a better home deal if you buy prior to the summer months? According to Los Angeles MLS data, this appears to be true. Okay, you may disagree because you say it's always warm in Los Angeles. I personally disagree, I'm all bundled up right now in my cold office complaining that my heater isn't doing it's job.
